Veteran MC Yoo Jae Suk had viewers laughing after showing a hilariously sensitive reaction when his daughter was mentioned during a recent episode of Running Man.
The April 19 broadcast featured a spy-themed race titled “Running Days: Codename R”, with musical actors joining as guests. Among the various games, one segment stood out for its playful tension and unexpected family mention.
During the mission “Sniper! Triggered or Not?”, cast members had to ask questions designed to provoke reactions. Ji Suk Jin chose Yoo Jae Suk as his target—and immediately brought up his daughter, Naeun.
The moment her name was mentioned, Yoo Jae Suk visibly tensed and jokingly warned, “There are things you should say and things you shouldn’t.” His reaction alone already had the cast bursting into laughter.
Ji Suk Jin didn’t hold back, asking whether Yoo Jae Suk would want his daughter to resemble him. Sensing danger, Yoo tried to deflect the question by saying there were “other traits” beyond looks.
But the teasing only intensified. Ji Suk Jin humorously listed Yoo Jae Suk’s facial features, while Haha chimed in with additional jokes, turning the moment into full-blown comedic chaos.
Overwhelmed by the playful attacks, Yoo Jae Suk protested, “Why are you bringing my son and daughter into the game?” His mock frustration highlighted his well-known image as both a top entertainer and a devoted father.
Sensing things had gone a bit too far, Haha quickly wrapped things up with a sweet comment, saying, “Naeun, we love you. She’s so pretty—she takes after her mom.” The remark helped end the segment on a warm and humorous note.
This exchange once again showcased why Running Man remains a fan-favorite variety show. The cast’s chemistry, combined with Yoo Jae Suk’s quick wit and genuine reactions, created a memorable scene that balanced humor with a touch of sincerity.
